Hopefully this is the right place for this thread. I'm thinking of removing my shifty nasty carpets from my XJ. Who has done the same? Did you replace it with anything? Bedliner? Carpets? Or rubber mats I'm thinking. Custom cut rubber mats. How did yours turn out? Any body have pictures of there's for ideas?

 

I removed mine but didn't do anything. Been delaying doing the bedliner job. Hopefully this summer I ll get to do it

 

my first xj came with some premolded rubber flooring but i have yet to install it

 

What do you think for Bedliner? Rattle can, roll on, or professionally done?

 

No rear carpets or rear seat, that is Pooch territory. The floor has a good coat of rust paint. Then I have a few tight berber throw rugs that I get on sale. About 3ft square each. Discount store often has a stack of them in the ailse for 8 - 10$each. They are good fit size and I overlap them to cover tool box and recovery gear. Covers the rough stuff on the back floors well from tender paws. I can pull them out, power wash, and hang dry. Tough enough for my crew. Bare floor is way too cold here in the winter, - 25C for last few days. Gotta keep Nyala and Yogi happy.

 

Here is a picture of a bedlined interior and you can probably do a pretty decent rattle can job.

 

Tons of people rip out the carpet and do bedliner. Very easy cleanup but as you can imagine temperature and noise become an issue. My eventual plan is to bedline my floor and install a ton of this stuff http://www.miller-mfg.com/page/1/pro...p?groupId=1725

 

Is that rattle or roll on? It looks awesome! I'll have to do that.

 

That was also my concern I enjoy a somewhat quiet cabin. When my doors are on...



Sorry for double post

 

That roll of rubber matting would work great for some homefab custom cut floor liners. Especially in the up front footwells, and help cut the sound down too. Definitely louder when the stock interior is pulled.

 

It's at Princess Auto $3.49/foot, I think the roll is 4' wide.

 

Pulled all the carpet out during my rebuild. Want to bed liners it when I Rhinoline my jeep (professionally by a dealership) but also want to use that dynamat stuff, I think that's what it's called, under it. Can I do that? I want rubber floor matts over all of it

 

Hmmmm Dynamat+ rubber flooring... What's some ideas for sound proofing? Already started new weather striping. Packed the rear quarter panels with insulation. That helped.

 

I'm pretty sure no. Rhinoline is just a paint basically.

 

Not sure how flexible Dynamat is but most bedliners will go over products like that. And if you wanna go nuts with soundproofing, for the floor you can strengthen it with some thicker metal, but also dump a ton of rubber undercoating on it. Not the asphalty stuff, the product I use is more like a rubberized paint.
